In this work, we study the properties of galaxies that are showing the inside-out assembly (which we call inside-out assembled galaxies; IOAGs), with the main aim to understand better their properties and morphological transformation. We analysed a sample of galaxies from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 8 (DR8), with stellar masses in the range log M* = 10.73 – 11.03 M⊙ at at z < 0.1, and analyze their location in the stellar mass-SFR and the color-stellar mass diagram. We found that IOAGs have different spectroscopic properties, most of them being classified either as AGN or composite. We found that the majority of our sources are located below the main sequence of star formation in the SFR-stellar mass diagram, and in the green valley or red sequence in the color-stellar mass diagram. We argue that IOAGs seem to correspond to the transition area where the galaxies are moving from star-forming to quiescent, and from the blue cloud to the red sequence and/or to recently quenched galaxies.
